Trauma Integration Practitioner

Tiffany Shepherd

I live in Mesa, Arizona. I’m a trauma practitioner and educator, dental hygenist, yoga instructor, wife, mama, nana, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend. To me, relationships matter most. Relationships can be pretty sticky sometimes, and where many trauma responses originates from. I have found that by resolving my own trauma I am free to be the best version of myself, and that has improved all aspects of my relationships. I love learning new things, and when I’m not coaching you will find me trying out something new, or getting my hands dirty in my garden.

So this is crazy! But in 2014, my husband recieved a heart transplant. It was as hard as you can imagine, maybe more. And that story was always about him, and rightly so! But, I was there too. I was his caregiver and the sole provider for our family taking care of him, our home, and three young children. He had a total artificial heart for 15 months, Yup, they took out his heart! And I was responsible for his completely mechanical heart while he was home. I was trained to be his “engineer”, so he could leave the hospital safely. I was his medical care, and responsible for the upkeep of his device while he was at home. The stress, trauma, and exhaustion of that experience left me a shell of my former self. I’m so thankful I have experienced the peace and healing in my own life through this same process that I offer to you.

No matter what your trauma looks like, I know it can be healed. I believe in you and in your strength! I got you.

 
 

  • Working with Tiffany has changed so many aspects of my life for the better. She has helped me through trauma and feelings that I didn’t even know I was hanging onto or struggling with. These feelings were causing termoil inside of me that I no longer need to hold onto or let affect me anymore. She is a warm, friendly, sincere and inspired person. Tiffany has helped me approach challenges with light and positivity instead of with fear and negativity. I feel more power to respond instead of react in situations. I feel more control in my thinking and my life. My soul feels more free to choose. All these changes I’ve been able to make through Tiffany’s help and expertise has been the greatest gift.

  • Tiffany has changed my life. I felt stuck, for a very long time. All the “self help” books helped educate me and that was great but I was still just stuck. I loved all I was learning from those books but to apply it to me personally lasted a short while, then all old habits came back. My sister referred me to Tiffany and my life was changed. I had never experienced any therapy like this. Until you experience it for yourself, you may not understand. My experience being different than yours as well, but I know your life will be changed for the better if you see Tiffany. She has helped me become the best version of me I have been longing for. I am no longer stuck, due to the trauma throughout my life. I have emotionally grown beyond what I thought was possible for me and I continue to see how this therapy has blessed my life and my families life each day. Truly. I send everyone I know to her because I know she will help them too.
